I've just noticed that the Incantation Verifier Spell Checker button has vanished from the post editor screen. Can anyone else corroborate this?

No, really. English isn't my first language, but I can make myself clear, although I'd rather check certain words before posting. I don't want to look like a complete idiot.

I reckon that you can spellcheck your posts elsewhere.

If you use Chrome there's one built in (saved my life many a time) and for most of the other browsers I'm sure there's a plugin... I'll admit I've never used the one on the forum before, nor noticed it was there!

Yeah most browsers now have a spell check available, they are well worth getting since they work on any text box (I think they kick in on any text entry field with two or more lines) on the web and function exactly like the ones in word processors ie suspected errors are highlighted and you right click on them to show suggested corrections or just correct them yourself. Most are customisable as well.

Hi, I don't get the option of spellcheck any more when I'm posting. Has this been disabled?
If so, can You re-enstate it or will this suck up too much data on the program/site/server?

Like magic, the "Spell Check" button has reappeared, so we may once again check our spells with ease.

The Incantation Validator Spelling Checker has vanished again, no doubt as part of Bad Behaviour's bad behaviour. I mention it only in case its absence had not yet been noticed.

My bad. I turned it off when I was trying to trace down a particular PHP problem on the new server, and forgot to turn it back on. Should be working now!
